refactor: safe PHP 7.4 modernization

[somethingwithproof]

This PR adds strict typing, short array syntax, and null coalescing operators across the plugin. Standalone infrastructure files were removed per architectural mandate.

Pull request overview

This PR modernizes the WebSeer plugin’s PHP code style (strict typing + short arrays) and adds initial security hardening scaffolding (audit docs, URL validator, tests, and CI config).

Changes:

• Add declare(strict_types=1); across plugin entrypoints and supporting files, and refactor many array() usages to [] (including prepared-statement parameter arrays).
• Introduce security documentation and a new UrlValidator seam plus a new security-focused test file.
• Add CI/static-analysis config (GitHub Actions, PHPUnit config, PHPStan config, Infection config).
